CBA20 is “the only adaptation conference that puts the lived experience and knowledge of local people at the centre. The 20th International Conference on Community-Based Adaptation to Climate Change (CBA20) will take place from 11-14 May 2026 in Manila, Philippines. The CBA conference is a space for the adaptation community to share lessons on community-based and locally led adaptation approaches, and to explore how to put the principles for locally led adaptation (LLA) into practice, recognising the complexities, innovations and challenges that must be overcome.”
